MEDIA RELEASE
TradeWindow announces extension of Share Offer – Share Offer closes 24 February 2023
Auckland, NZ – 14 February 2023
Trade Window Holdings Ltd (NZX:TWL) ("TradeWindow") advises that in reliance on a wavier from NZX Listing Rule 3.16.2, it is extending its offer of new shares ("Share Offer") announced on 17 January 2023. The Share Offer was previously expected to close on 17 February 2023, but is now closing at 5:00pm NZDT on Friday, 24 February 2023. Investors can participate in the Share Offer and apply for shares otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Offer Letter until this new closing date and time.
The terms of the waiver can be found on the TradeWindow’s NZX announcement page on the NZX website (https://www.nzx.com/companies/TWL/announcements)
TradeWindow is concerned that with the North Island effectively shut down due to Cyclone Gabrielle, investors who were seeking to participate in the Share Offer this week may be disadvantaged in doing so, particularly given the distraction and disruption to such investors that the cyclone will undoubtedly bring. Further, TradeWindow has been delayed in arranging closing meetings with investors who are already in due diligence processes, but will likely not be able to conclude their investigations during this disrupted week. Therefore, TradeWindow considers that an extension of the Share Offer period of a further five Business Days will mitigate any disadvantage experienced by such investors due to the impacts of the cyclone.
Settlement and allotment of the new shares issued under the Share Offer is now expected to occur on 2 March 2023.
The revised timetable is set out below:
DATE EVENT
17 January 2023 Share Offer opens
31 January 2023 TradeWindow Special Meeting
24 February 2023 Share Offer closes (last day for
Applications)
